I wrote about our neat press before. Since then my daugter has become a pressing expert. But what do we do with all these pressings? Well, I finally figured it out. We took some glue and added a little water. Then we brushed it onto the paper, laid the pressing on top and brushed more glue on top of the pressing. This has lots of applications. You could add pressed flowers to cards, notes, book marks, whatever your heart desires. Here are some pictures of a page I did in my nature journal.
Gather the supplies.
Here's the before, a wild flower boquet my daughter pressed.

Here is the page in my nature journal, after it is glued, but not yet dry.

After it was dry, I labled the flowers that I knew.
